‘Final Fantasy VII’ (!!!) Out Now with Full MFi Controller Support

I sure picked a good time to go on a 12-hour road trip. Yesterday was one of the biggest release days in the entire history of MFi controller compatible games, and I was too busy driving to write about it! Let’s correct that now.

First up is one of the biggest games in the history of gaming, and one of the most anticipated ports in iOS history: Final Fantasy VII. Yes, that one. It’s out on iOS. Right now. It fully supports MFi controllers.

This is usually where I’d write up a short blurb about whether or not I recommend the game, but the fact is, I’ve never played Final Fantasy VII before. I know that many people consider it the best RPG of all time, and I know that many others consider it highly overrated. I’m greatly looking forward to spending many hours making up my own mind.

So while I can’t leave a definite recommendation yet, I can say tentatively that this port of FFVII is based on the well-regarded PC version, with its improved graphics and performance. It features full MFi controller support, iCloud saving, and universal compatibility. It’s fully premium, with no ads or spam or any of that crap.

This is Final Fantasy VII, apparently ported with a lot of care to iOS. If you’ve played the game already, you already know if that makes it an instabuy or something to avoid. If you haven’t (like me), there has probably never been a better opportunity to give it a try!
